Our Histroy
There is no doubt that we are living in the ‘knowledge era’ of human history and KISTTI as a
TVET institution positions itself strategically in promoting sustainable development of the
Nation. Kisiwa Technical Training Institute has grown from scratch to its current status. It is
a middle level institution sponsored by Catholic church and established on a five (5)-
(currently 17.5) acres land along the Kimilili-Chwele –Kabuchai road, within Bungoma
County.

The institute is located on the Eastern side of Kabuchai Hills, West Nalondo Location,
Kabuchai Constituency of Bungoma Central with a staff of 46 Trainers employed by PSC, 76
employed by BoG and 64 Support staff with student population of 2272. The institute
registered under the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology (MOHES&T
REG NO.PS/1144/09) was established and registered by Kenya Youth Club Association
(KYCA) as East Bukusu Youth Club (EBYC) on 27th Nov 1961 with objective of
empowering youth with skills for self- reliance and employment in Shoe making, Carpentry
and Masonry.

Moreover, the history of KSTTI is built upon big dreams of Dominic Wetangula and
Sylvester Kituyi as the undaunted innovators who had dreams empowering youth with skills
for self-reliance and employment in shoe making, Carpentry and Masonry and turned them to
reality. Since then, the institute has undergone Metamorphosis to assume the status of a
Technical institute on 7th December 2008. The growth of KISTTI demonstrated that from
Kabuchai Hills to China, Korea, America and Germany and points in between, KISTTI
students, graduates, and staff have proven that anything is possible if you start strong, stay
strong, and finish strong. The transition of the institute witnessed the first nine (9) students
enrolling for Automotive and Masonry. The inception and growth of KISTTI dates back in
2009 when the local community had a vision of having a Technical Institute. Subsequently,
the Institute introduced a variety of courses in artisan, craft and diploma levels in technical
and business courses.
